The meeting was already over, Mika with a sad gloomy face.
'Hey Mika? Are you okay?' a concerned elder asked.
' of course not, Mr Haruto wants to sacrifice my comrades. He can't do that!' her tears followed the words.
' Yeah, you are right. His idea is childish, what if he attcks the guy and then find out that the person he's looking for is not there, what is he going to do?' Shinji asked.
The other elders nodded, showing the good point from Shinji's mouth.
'That's right, it will be a war if he attcks that guy, you'll never know, that guy can be somehow connected with the King.' another elder said his point.
' That's right, he was a war fighter, what if he was on private property for a reason, maybe to isolate him from the public, because the guy was a killer. He was one of the Shadow Assassins. That organization was big and it new it's job. Every one last of the Elysian culprits where hunted down and killed like insects just by the guys of that organization. He was gifted that name, 'The ghost of steel ' all because he was good at following his job, he was a complete shadow man.' another elder explained the story.
'Which means, if he attcks that guy, he will be forced to be in the public, and in public, he will be killing every last one of them.?' Ryota asked a question.
' No, he's not like that. He was a killing machine and he followed orders properly. So, he didn't kill anyone just from nowhere, he killed everyone who was wrong and he didn't kill kids. He loved them, and even called them as Pure souls. I guess that's why he's training kids.'
Meanwhile
'There's a voice that keeps echoing in my mind. Saying;" feel the Earth's pulse beneath you and let the wind whisper guidance to your ears. Feel the fire of your passion and listen to the waves of water crushing, because guidance is there! The elements are the key to success." can you tell me the message from this, because I'm all lost Master?'
'Wait…..! But it can't be.'
' What is it Master '.
' I'm trying to put it together, the last message,"The elements, are the keys to success " can only mean one thing in my head, but maybe two '.
' What is that Master '.
'It's complicated, but….. two options in my head, it's either you got powers of all the elements or you are supposed to try one, according to the message that you heard.'
' Huh?! You were right, it's complicated for sure Master '.
'Do you want to try it?'
'Yes but we are always training here.'
'Yeah I know, but, what if we cut the training hours into two working times?'
'Huh??' Akirion's small head didn't process that.
'I mean, if we train from morning to mid day and then from mid-day, we test your magic powers '.
'That will totally be great, but…. won't training be affected?'
' Yeah yeah, I know, I'm planning to stop the training thing and just live my life freely.'
Meanwhile, the angry Haruto talking alone.
' You'll never live freely with the hero's heir, you, GHOST OF STEEL! Grrrrrrrr, I'll totally finish you, you need to give me the kid or you'll die, you'll have to choose. I'll put you in a corner, that you won't be able to choose. Keep it in mind, I'm coming for you!' the furious Haruto said all those words in anger. Some might say that he said that out of anger or he was blinded by anger.
The meeting was over but Mika was still worried. There must be something that she might have been lying about or hiding all this time because she looked stressed, ever since, the story about searching the ghost of steel's house.
'So, what will you be doing for a living?' Akirion asked.
'Ahhh, I'm a grown man, I'll figure something out'.
'So, how am I going to start and where?'
' Don't worry, you'll see tomorrow.'
' Can't wait to see that tomorrow '.
'Hahaha, that's gets us to a separation , it's time to go to bed Akie.'
'ahww, really?'
'Yes, good night'. Akirion went to sleep and Thaneiros was still sitting in the living room. He started thinking about the visitors that he head recently.
' What are they up to, it's difficult to think about it. Such bad mannered humans, thinking of killing a kid, that's inhumane for sure. They think that they are going to win just by killing the awakeners , the real monsters can wipe them all out in just a blink of an eye but they are troubling the poor human souls. Let me go and rest my eyes for a minute.'
In the morning, Thaneiros and Akirion got ready for training just like everyday.
When other kids came, Thaneiros called for an announcement. His words were expected as follows;
' Morning guys, I got an announcement to make. Today our training session will be ending around midday, you can all have a free day.(Many kids were happy)Sorry to say this but this will be happening everyday I guess.(Awww, the kids said in disappointment. And I'm retiring, I'll be living you to another teacher. He's good a teacher, maybe his better than me, but all I know is that, he was a good kid and I'm sure he's still good. I'm the one who taught him, he knows a lot. So feel free to ask any questions. I'll be going to tell him about you guys in the following days, so keep up the good spirit. Anyone who wants to drop out just like Akirion can also do that. So, I say good luck out there, as for now, let's get to training, Thank you!.'
They started to ask a lot of questions about the new teacher he was referring to, so the training day got damaged.
'{I hope we won't get attacked}'
